Method and Apparatus for Encoding Based on Importance Values

2. The apparatus of claim 1, further comprising an encoder associated with the graphics processor circuitry, wherein the encoder to encode contents of the color buffer into a video bitstream based on the one or more importance values, wherein the one or more importance values are predetermined and assigned to vertices of the geometries relating to the scene relating to the application, wherein the graphics processor circuitry is further to render the scene relating to the application having the geometries, wherein the one or more importance values are stored in a buffer within a frame buffer associated with the graphics processor circuitry.

3. The apparatus of claim 2, wherein the encoder is further to encode the contents of the color buffer into the video bitstream by improving image quality associated with the one or more interested regions while reducing the image quality associated with one or more uninterested regions of the scene, wherein the encoder is further to transmit the video bitstream to a remote computing device over a network, wherein first contents of the video bitstream corresponding to the one or more interested regions are displayed at a display device, wherein second contents of the video bitstream corresponding to the one or more uninterested regions are compressed to preserve bandwidth.

4. The apparatus of claim 1, wherein the application includes a graphics application having a three-dimensional (3D) graphics application, wherein the one or more importance values are received through an application programming interface (API) of the apparatus.

8. The method of claim 5, wherein the application includes a graphics application having a three-dimensional (3D) graphics application, wherein the one or more importance values are received through an application programming interface (API) of the computing device.

12. The computer-readable medium of claim 9, wherein the application includes a graphics application having a three-dimensional (3D) graphics application, wherein the one or more importance values are received through an application programming interface (API) of the computing device.
